That didn't go over too well with UEP fiduciary Bruce R. Wisan, who wants to sell the farm to the mens' nephews.
He fired Sterling, who had been working on the farm, and gave both men eviction notices. I heard they had until today to move out.
The two brothers were trying to prevent Wisan from selling the farm to their nephews without first acknowledging their ownership interest in the farm. They also asked for lifetime estates in the homes they've occupied at the farm for decades.
Wisan said he had empathy with the men and tried to work with them, but they refused.
The farm had been operated by the Harkers for decades, and provided income, food and jobs for members of The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
Wisan was able to foreclose on the farm in partial payment of a $8.8 million judgement he won against the trust's former managers, whom the state alleged were misappropriating assets.
